City launches annual storm season campaign

29 September 2017

The City’s annual disaster preparedness campaign ‘Get Ready Gold Coast’ is now underway. The launch coincided with emergency response and recovery agencies from across the Gold Coast working together to exercise and test the City’s disaster response plans.

Storm season is just around the corner and Get Ready Gold Coast reminds residents to prepare their homes, have an emergency plan and pack an emergency kit.

As well as the severe flooding we saw associated with ex-Tropical Cyclone Debbie, cyclones, storms, bushfires and heat waves are the kinds of major natural incidents our city can face every year.

For more information on how to prepare your home, create an emergency plan and pack an emergency kit, pick up a copy of the Community Disaster Guide at local libraries and customer service centres or visit cityofgoldcoast.com.au/getready
